BACKGROUND Australian bat lyssavirus (ABLV) infects a number of flying fox and insectivorous bats species in Australia. Human infection with ABLV is inevitably fatal unless prior vaccination and/or post-exposure treatment (PET) is given. Despite ongoing public health messaging about the risks associated with bat contact, surveillance data have revealed a four-fold increase in the number of peop...

This paper studies the welfare cost of Medicare system. A general equilibrium overlapping generations model with endogenous health accumulation is developed and calibrated to mimic the US economy. The quantitative results show that by eliminating Medicare, we actually obtain a welfare gain which is equivalent to a lump-sum increase in consumption to the agents at a magnitude of 5.1% of GDP. The...

Patients varying in their susceptability to medication are a priori uninformed of available medication. Physicians making the prescription choice perfectly identify a patient’s most suitable drug. Firms promote drugs to physicians (detailing)...

A recent strand of the literature convincingly demonstrates that both the sovereign default and the household default are properly explained by models in which agents face uninsurable income shocks, while being allowed to strategically default on their debt. We develop a similar model in a general equilibrium setting, and we prove that the market equilibrium features overborrowing as well as to...

Lameness is one of the most important welfare issues of high producing dairy cows in North America (Vermunt, 2007). It is a debilitating condition that challenges sustainability of production systems used in North America because ...

We study welfare effects of horizontal mergers under a successive oligopoly model and find that downstream mergers can increase welfare if they reduce input prices. The lower input price shifts some input production from costinefficient upstream firms to cost-efficient ones. Also, the lower input price makes upstream entry less attractive, reduces the number of upstream entrants, and decreases ...
